As speaker and writer passionate about new technologies and their contribution to the healthcare system, she works to democratize their use and make them accessible to the entire medical community.

“I am fascinated with the possibilities that offer blockchain technologies in comparison to the traditional processes in healthcare. It really breaks all the barriers of the conventional way of approaching this sector. The patient finally has an opportunity to become the main actor of the healthcare circuit and the owner of his own data. It is hard for now to understand where this technology will take healthcare but the emulation around it is very challenging. It forces you to think in a different way and I think that this is what I love most about what I do.”
